Katie has a new teacher while her old one is out on maternity leave. The new teacher has changed to a "red, yellow, green" behavior management system, where we get a behavior summary like a traffic signal. I picked Katie up after school recently and this conversation ensued after the usual greetings:
Me: So, how was your day?
Katie: <silence with a sheepish look>
Me: Was it a red day?
Katie: Yes.
Me: Katie Brown, why was it red?
Katie: Talking. I had a green day until I talked too much during reading.
Me: It's always talking that gets you.
Katie: Yeah. I was just made to talk, I guess.
